Dystopias

Studio 360

There are so many ways the world could go wrong — electing the wrong candidate is only one of them. Charlie Brooker, creator of the hit sci-fi show “Black Mirror,” gets his dystopian ideas from our digital devices. Then, novelist Gary Shteyngart reads from his darkly funny book about the near-future, “Super Sad True Love Story.” And Janelle Monáe plays songs from the 28th century.
